A force

F $=(59\mathrm{.}4+98\mathrm{.}1)$ N

is exerted on an object at a point whose position from the axis of rotation is given by

r $=6\mathrm{.}80$ m$.$

$($a$)$ Find the torque exerted by this force. $($Express your answer in vector form.$)$

$=$

N $$ m

$($b$)$ What happens to your answer if the force's x component increases while the y component remains constant?

The torque's magnitude increases.The torque's magnitude decreases.$$The torque's magnitude remains unchanged.

$($c$)$ What happens to your answer if the force's y component increases while the x component remains constant?

The torque's magnitude increases.The torque's magnitude decreases.$$The torque's magnitude remains unchanged.
